Our little girl Violet was lifted into the world three weeks ago yesterday, on July 22nd, 2016. I say “lifted” because she was a c-section birth. A friend told me the story of her daughter’s c-section by sharing that the nurse had said, “Some babies need to be lifted into this world rather than … Continue reading
Sounds like a vacation package, right? Nope. It’s the time left until our baby is born. (EEK!) A lot has happened since I blogged about being in the third trimester. We found out some potentially alarming news about six weeks ago that our baby wasn’t growing as she should, and that she may have something called … Continue reading
I love the above quote because it is true. It’s all the advice I read when I was struggling, and in the end, it was the only thing that worked. Trying to manifest things back failed. Making a love altar in the northeast corner of my apartment failed. Even crying for weeks in a therapist’s office … Continue reading
I’ll unashamedly admit that when I heard the term “babymoon” for the first time, I thought it was really dumb. I think we try to celebrate EVERYTHING in our culture sometimes (“First trip to the movies as an engaged couple!” is an actual Instagram post I saw a couple of weeks ago) and sometimes, I … Continue reading
You wanna know what forces you into living smaller + slower? Growing a human being! I am an energetic person, who, if you give me my 7-8 hours of sleep, likes to go-go-go until the last moment. (You guys, I write this blog to remind ME to slow down just as much as I do it for … Continue reading
Long time, no blog! 🙂 I’ve had this post milling in my thoughts for some time now, and you’ll soon see why I had to wait until now to write it. It was an incredible holiday season this year, much better than the previous holidays. I was super into it, work was busy and incredible, … Continue reading
Hey guys! I’m sipping coffee on this warm Saturday afternoon feeling totally happy and relaxed. Life has been, seriously, pretty freakin’ great lately. For one, my adrenal fatigue is finally healed after years of suffering and months of work with my doctor. I’m on supplements and I pulled all irritating foods out of my diet … Continue reading
The other night, my husband and I went on a date and saw The Gift with Jason Bateman. I was really excited to see it even though I really hate scary movies/thrillers. Something about the trailer totally hooked me and I really wanted to know who the true bad guy was in the movie. (Don’t worry, I … Continue reading
Um, Happy New Year? (I know, I know, it’s March!) Sorry I haven’t popped over here in a bit! I have a big post coming on Why Getting Your Ex Back Isn’t All You’ve Dreamed Of, so stay tuned for that. But in the meantime, a quick update: The first two months of this year were … Continue reading
I was so honored to spend the last two months working on an amazing event in collaboration with lululemon athletica. The cause is #unpluggedambush, a multi-tiered movement to bring meditation to those who need it in a fresh, inspiring, happiness-inducing way. On October 23rd, sixty of us gathered under the stars in Franklin Canyon Park (which is … Continue reading
